@cool_scootre Depends on the city tbh. Growing up in Kolkata, traveling by metro was always the default and by far the fastest and more convenient option.

The most ridiculous thing on Twitter today is non-bengalis explaining to Bengalis how eating Non-veg during Durga Pooja is against Bengali culture.

Where can I find this type of confidence?

Why do academic institutions (or all institutions) abhor the proliferation of eateries their territories? The more there are eateries, the more students congregate. The more they congregate, the more they talk. As they talk, they spread ideas. Ideas are dangerous! Megalomania

@hanisha_kv A lot of science is essentially seeking and identifying patterns (Problem solving). Wouldn't be surprised if AI surpasses human beings in research that's inferential in nature.

@keerthana6174 You should try Biostatistics: The Bare Essentials, one of the funniest textbooks I've come across

@vishuguttal A slightly differing opinion, but 1st summer was our first proper opportunity to get a taste of "research". So it was genuinely refreshing to get to play around with a toy problem and learn a lot just by observing others.

(With a couple of weeks off before and after ofcourse)

@Ritajyoti_B Isn't that the general narrative? Random organic conversations in such settings are often labelled 'adda' and looked down upon as waste of time in 'institutions of productivity'

[Ritam Das @_ritamdas]

So that's why...
